The smallest heart pump in the world and first small bore MCS has arrived! Proud of the St John clinical research team for successfully performing the first in man. Congratulations to all the investigators and engineers that are advancing the science. Small bore and giant leap!

If settlers believe God promised them this land, why do they burn and uproot its olive trees?
Those who belong to the land take care of the land.

@DrAmirKaki in debate of the century MCS for HRPCI - chip bcis3 recruited amongst the highest risk population for PCI in the literature - not reflecting population in real world, many were transferred back to non- pci hospitals on same day. 17 of 21 centres were new users of impella, no procedure support planning, in hospital mortality highest reported in Literature, could this relate to premature withdrawal of support- half met shock criteria ? See final slide

This was HEARTBREAKING
Dr. Tanya Haj-Hassan, who volunteered in Gaza, exposed Israel:
"I held a lifeless child in my arms. There was no equipment to save him. This is not a war; it is a massacre of the innocent." teapawt.net/SpotGlobals/status/206…

Do contemporary sites with the capabilities of MCS escalation have better outcomes than pts included in NCSI (Impella capable hospitals using a CS protocol w/ or w/o escalation capabilities and dedicated CICUs) ?
Data from CERAMICS presented at @SCAI!

🇺🇸🇵🇸American actor Joaquin Phoenix on Gaza:
"There's no justification for fucking children starving, starving to death... You don't have to understand geopolitics or anything like that just to get that"

Apple has removed Lebanese village names in Southern Lebanon.
As Israel invades, they are already setting the state to justify occupation.
I’ve never seen something like this.

MASSIVE PROTEST IN ROME TODAY
Protestors in Rome carried a massive symbolic shroud, inscribed with the names of more than 21,000 Palestinian children killed by Israel.

Israel killed this little Palestinian girl in Gaza today.
They shot her while she was sitting in class inside a tent in Beit Lahia.
She was only 9 years old.
No headlines. No outrage. No condemnation.
Not a peep from the “international community.”

Israel kills more civilians in 10 minutes than Ukraine and Russia together in one year.
Let that sink in.

Justo hoy, Netanyahu lanza su ataque más duro contra el Líbano desde que empezó la ofensiva.
Su desprecio por la vida y el derecho internacional es intolerable.
Toca hablar claro:
- Líbano debe formar parte del alto al fuego.
- La comunidad internacional debe condenar esta nueva violación del derecho internacional.
- La Unión Europea debe suspender su Acuerdo de Asociación con Israel.
- Y no debe haber impunidad ante estos actos criminales.
